Description: The Museum of Everything is the first travelling museum dedicated to untrained, unintentional and unseen creators of our modern world.  Exhibition number 4 includes collaborations that happened when a contemporary artist with an ability enabled a self-taught artist with a disability to make art.  The exhibition consists of works solely by artists with developmental and physical disabilities.  Curated by James Brett,  the show focuses on art made in studio workshops, some attached to hospitals, around the world, from Japan to Brazil, Germany to Australia. Includes work by  Mario Jambresic who creates talismanic drawings of protective authority figures which he cuts out and folds away in his pocket until they are ready to be seen and Alan Constable whose colourful paintings of people facing a barrage of paparazzi-style media are accompanied by a collection of oversized cameras that the artist has sculpted in ceramic.
